Answer 2

Answer:

C) is correct

Naresh bought 4 dozen pencils at Rs 10.80 a dozen

Therefore 1 pencil cost

(1 Rs =100paisa)

=1080/12 (1 dozen =12)

Therefore, cost of 4 dozen=4×12=48 pencils=1080/12×48=Rs 4320

He sold them for 80 paisa each

Therefore, SP of 48 pencils

=48×80=Rs 3840

Clearly, CP>SP

So it is loss.

Loss =CP - SP

Therefore, loss=4320-3840=Rs 480

Loss %=loss/CP×100

Therefore, loss %

=480/4320×100=100/9%
